Streetwear fashion, characterized by its casual and often oversized styles, has gained significant popularity in recent years. Therefore, hoodies/sweatshirts segment would acquire half revenue in 2030. Hoodies and sweatshirts are central pieces of streetwear collections due to their relaxed fit and urban aesthetic. These garments have become staples in the fashion industry, catering to consumer preferences for everyday wear and personal expression. Additionally, their adaptability to trends and sustainability considerations contribute to their enduring popularity. The influence of streetwear in mainstream fashion has led to increased demand for these garments. Some of the factors impacting the market are expansion of print-on-demand (POD) services, rising use of sustainable and eco-friendly materials, and growing competition in e-commerce and online marketplaces.

Growing awareness of environmental causes and social responsibility has fueled consumer demand for sustainable clothing. As consumers become more conscious of their purchasing decisions, they seek out it made from eco-friendly materials with a lower environmental impact. Brands prioritizing sustainability and eco-friendly materials often enjoy a positive brand image and reputation. Additionally, Influencers and social media platforms provide a vast and diverse audience for blank apparel brands. By partnering with influencers, brands can tap into their followers, increasing awareness and visibility of their its products.

As influencers and social media continue to play a pivotal role in the fashion industry, they will likely remain influential in shaping consumer preferences and expanding the market for it.

However, as more brands and manufacturers enter the market, price competition intensifies. Consumers expect competitive pricing, and this can put pressure on businesses to reduce profit margins to remain competitive. New entrants may struggle to establish their brand presence in a market dominated by established players. Maintaining consistent product quality becomes crucial. This can result in increased competition for the same customer base, making it hard for new entrants to gain traction. E-commerce and online marketplaces have lowered entry barriers, allowing more businesses to compete. However, this has also led to an overcrowding of online spaces and increased competition for customer attention. The growing competition in the market presents multiple challenges to expanding market growth.
